A Journey of American Comics Starting from the Zombie Universe

Chapter 563 Crater
Bai Ye stood at the edge of the wasteland, staring ahead with a sharp gaze. His figure seemed more resolute in the afterglow of the setting sun, like an immortal stone statue standing on this barren land. The soldiers followed closely behind him, their steps were tired, but their eyes were shining with unyielding light.

As they walked forward, a seemingly dead desert gradually appeared before their eyes. This desert was different. It was not only a wasteland of yellow sand, but also a forbidden area full of radiation dangers. The ground of the desert showed a strange dark red color, as if it had been burned by a raging fire, and the air was filled with a suffocating atmosphere.

On this wasteland, a dark red desert spreads out, like a land stained with blood, exuding a strange and heavy atmosphere. Every inch of the desert is a deep dark red, as if it has been burned by fire, or stained by the blood and tears deposited over the years.

The sand grains are small and hard, and they sparkle with a faint red light in the sun, like countless tiny rubies scattered on the ground. These sand grains seem to have a mysterious power, attracting people's attention and making people want to explore the stories behind them.

The desert has an undulating terrain. In some places, the sand dunes are towering into the sky, forming steep slopes; in other places, it is low and flat, like a plain eroded by the wind. These sand dunes and plains are intertwined to form a spectacular desert painting.

In this dark red desert, wind is an eternal theme. Sometimes it blows gently across the sand, bringing up fine dust; sometimes it sweeps violently, blowing the sand dunes like rolling waves. These winds seem to have their own souls. They shuttle and roar in the desert, adding a desolate and mysterious atmosphere to this land.

The sun casts mottled light and shadows on the desert, giving it a wonderful texture. In some places, light and shadow interweave to form abstract patterns; in other places, it is just a shadow, giving people a deep sense of silence and loneliness.

In this dark red desert, life seems to have disappeared. Except for the occasional weathered remains of plants and animals, there is almost no sign of life. These remains lie quietly in the desert, like witnesses forgotten by time, silently telling the story of past prosperity and decline.

The edge of the desert meets the sky, forming a blurred dividing line. The sky presents a deep azure color, which forms a sharp contrast with the dark red of the desert. Under this sky, the desert seems to become more vast and profound, making people feel an endless sense of vastness and loneliness.

As time goes by, the scenery of the desert is constantly changing. In the early morning, when the first rays of sunlight shine on the land, the desert presents a soft and mysterious beauty. The sand grains gleam with golden light in the sun, as if they were given life. In the evening, when the afterglow of the setting sun fills the earth, the desert becomes picturesque and beautiful. The towering sand dunes are dyed golden, which contrasts with the sunset in the sky, forming a beautiful picture.

In this dark red desert, time seems to have lost its meaning. It is like an eternal stage, witnessing the passage of time and the changes of history.

"It's really scary. Everyone must be careful with their next steps and don't act rashly."

Bai Ye stopped and frowned. He could feel the terrifying power in this desert, which was the mark left by nuclear radiation and could not be erased. He looked back at the soldiers and saw terrified expressions on their faces. However, Bai Ye knew that they could not retreat. Their mission was to move forward and explore the secrets of this wasteland.

"This is our destination. I can't say it's accurate, but you know what I mean." Bai Ye's voice was low and firm, as if it could penetrate the silence of the desert. "We will face unprecedented challenges, but we must persevere."

"Keep going, and be careful with the radiation. It's nothing to me, but it's almost completely lethal to you. It was like that before, but it may not be completely like that now."

"Okay, boss."

The soldiers nodded silently, but finally couldn't help but speak out, their eyes revealing determination and courage. They knew that their leader Bai Ye had never let them down, and this time was no exception.

Bai Ye turned and walked forward, his steps firm and powerful. The soldiers followed closely behind him, their footsteps echoing in the desert, as if announcing their arrival to this wasteland.

As they went deeper, the radiation in the desert became stronger and stronger. The soldiers' skin began to sting and their breathing became rapid. However, they had no intention of retreating. They knew that only by facing fear could they overcome it.

At this moment, a huge crater appeared in their sight. This crater almost occupied the entire field of vision, and its edges were jagged, as if it was split by a huge knife. The bottom of the crater was bottomless, and waves of heat rose from it, carrying a strong smell of radiation.

Deep in the wasteland, a huge bomb crater lay quietly, as if it was a wound after the earth was ruthlessly torn apart, revealing its cruelty and indifference. The edges of the bomb crater were jagged, as if it was split open by a huge sharp blade, revealing the depth and darkness inside.

The diameter of the crater is several hundred meters wide, and at first glance, it almost occupies the entire field of vision. Its edges rise high, like a huge crater, in sharp contrast to the flat wasteland around it. In the afterglow of the setting sun, these edges look particularly desolate, like a relic forgotten by time, standing alone in this dead land.

The bottom of the crater is so deep that it seems like a bottomless black hole, swallowing up all light and sound. Occasionally, a heat wave rises from the bottom, carrying a strong smell of radiation, which makes people feel an inexplicable fear. These heat waves twist and change in the air, like a ghost, making people dare not look directly at them.

Around the crater, the sand presents a strange dark red color, as if it had been burned by fire. This color contrasts sharply with the surrounding yellow sand, making the existence of the crater more conspicuous. On this dark red sand, you can also see some traces of radiation erosion, which are like scars on the earth, silently telling of the disaster that once happened.

There is no sign of life around the crater. The plants that were supposed to grow there have long since disappeared, without even a hint of green. The animals that once lived on this land have also long since been wiped out by the power of the nuclear explosion. Here, there is only silence and desolation, as if it is a corner forgotten by the world.

The clouds in the sky seemed to have sensed the terror of this land, and they avoided this area, making the sky above the crater always clear. The sun shone down obliquely, casting a long shadow on the edge of the crater. These shadows kept changing with the movement of the sun, as if telling the vicissitudes and changes of this land.

Around the crater, you can also see some sand dunes formed by the sand and soil lifted up by the shock wave. These dunes vary in size and shape, some are towering into the sky, while others are low and gentle. They lie there quietly, like the guardians of the earth, silently guarding this destroyed land.

At the bottom of the crater, some gas occasionally escapes from the depths, forming white smoke in the air, wandering in the crater like a ghost. The smoke sometimes gathers and sometimes disperses, as if telling the secrets deep in the land.

On this wasteland, this huge crater is like a permanent scar, reminding people of the disaster and pain they once experienced. Its existence is a warning to life and a call for peace. In this desolate and cruel world, this crater is like a mirror, reflecting the complexity and fragility of human nature. The edge of the crater gradually became smooth under the action of the wind, and those sharp edges were smoothed by the years, leaving only a sense of vicissitudes of life. However, this beauty carries a deep sadness and helplessness. It is a masterpiece of nature and a witness to human tragedy.

In this wasteland, this huge bomb crater is like a lonely watcher, silently watching over this destroyed land. Its existence is a memory of the past and an expectation of the future. In this dead land, it tells an eternal story about life, death and hope with its existence.

As night fell, the crater became more mysterious and profound. The moonlight sprinkled on the edge of the crater, covering it with a layer of silver. Under the cover of the night, the crater seemed to have turned into a huge black hole, swallowing all light and sound. The gases escaping from the bottom looked even more eerie under the moonlight, forming white tracks in the night sky, dancing in the night sky like ghosts.

In this silent wasteland, this huge bomb crater is like an eternal mystery, waiting for someone to uncover its veil. Its existence is a reverence for life and an expectation for the future. In this world full of unknowns, this bomb crater is like a bright beacon, guiding people to explore those forgotten secrets.

The soldiers stopped in their tracks, with shocked expressions on their faces. They couldn't imagine that this nuclear bomb had such a huge power that it could tear the desert into such a huge wound.

"So beautiful."

"My God!"

"It's unbelievable. I've never seen anything like this in my life. It was always like this before today."

"Is this... the place where a nuclear bomb fell?" a soldier asked in a trembling voice. His legs were shaking a little. He was not afraid, but because of the strong wind.

"Yes! You are quite right."

Bai Ye nodded, his eyes deep and determined. "Yes, this is the trace left by the nuclear bomb. However, we cannot retreat because of this. Our mission is to explore this wasteland and find those forgotten secrets."

"."

The soldiers stared at the huge crater silently, their hearts filled with awe and curiosity. They knew that there were too many unknowns and dangers hidden in this wasteland, but they also believed that with their efforts, they would be able to uncover these secrets.

Bai Ye signaled the soldiers to keep going, and they carefully bypassed the edge of the crater and continued to go deeper into the radioactive desert. Every step was full of challenges and unknowns, but their faith became stronger.

On this wasteland, Bai Ye and the soldiers left a series of firm footprints. Their figures gradually faded away in the afterglow of the setting sun, but their beliefs and courage remained forever on this desolate land.

As they went deeper, the scene in the desert became more and more bizarre. On the dark red sand, you could occasionally see some remains of plants and animals corroded by radiation. Their distorted shapes seemed to tell the tragic history of this land. The soldiers took out their cameras to record these shocking scenes, their hearts filled with awe and curiosity about this wasteland.

Bai Ye silently observed the surroundings, his eyes were sharp and deep. He knew that there were too many secrets and dangers hidden in this wasteland, and they had to stay vigilant at all times to ensure their safety.

As night fell, the temperature in the desert dropped sharply. The soldiers lit a bonfire and sat around to keep warm. Their faces were full of fatigue and sleepiness, but their eyes were shining with determination. They knew that only by persisting could they complete their mission.

Bai Ye sat by the campfire, his eyes looking into the distance. In this silent desert, his thoughts drifted into the distance. He thought of his past, and of his former comrades and relatives in this world. Their sacrifices and contributions made him more determined to move forward.

"Boss, do you think we can really find those forgotten secrets?" a soldier suddenly asked.

"What did you say?"

Bai Ye turned around and looked at the soldier, with a hint of determination in his eyes. "Yes, I believe we can find it. There are too many unknowns and secrets hidden in this wasteland, waiting for us to discover. Our mission is to uncover these secrets and let them see the light of day again."

The soldiers nodded one after another, their eyes flashing with anticipation and curiosity. They knew that their leader Bai Ye had never let them down, and this time was no exception.

As the night deepened, the wind in the desert began to howl. The soldiers lay on the sand, their breathing gradually becoming steady and deep. Bai Ye sat by the campfire, watching the silent desert. He knew that their journey was still long, but they would keep going until they uncovered all the secrets of this wasteland.

In this radioactive desert, the story of Bai Ye and the soldiers continues. Their faith and courage will be forever engraved on this desolate land and become the symbol of this land.
